I guess Marshal was right. Apparently playing express is a slippery slope back into addiction.

I'm not sure it's possible to have bots on tourney, it has no api access to news or rankings, which is why eestats and earthgraphs have no info on it. I'm almost positive this also means no AI access which is how bots work.

Still debating a return to FFA for the next set, after the ass whoopin's I took there I need to improve tactics. Gees I never seen so many missile attacks at one time, with LOC.

You might have been kidding and maybe I missed it ... But there are no bots in any of the Tournament games.

I'm in Game C also after a... oh... 15 year retirement.

Currently newbing it up and just logged out 10th... but i keep running out of money before i can finish my turns. What's with the market prices yo? Can't no body make a living with that. =)

welcome back slobjob ... there is a hotel california aspect to this game ... i came back a few years ago after missing 10+ years ... there are many differences from its glory days, but it delivers the same game experience that we were missing . cheers and good luck!

Is that true? Seems pretty much the same. Think i played last just after they created oil. Trying to remember the differences.
1) Max explore was 40A instead of 45A? Super not sure about that.
2) What's with the mandatory GDI thing? Guess it stops bottom feeding for land, and random hits of top guys.
3) Don't remember the market being so cheap. Maybe I should have went Casher afterall, but I wanted a super safe Indy to play first since I remember landgrabbing being fast and furious.
4) What the hell. Why does no one attack? =)

But overall, it feels very very familiar.

the set just started so people are dumping for profit slightly higher then private, market is still shared between a,b,c though.

Welcome back slobgob!
The newer additions of the market tools Standing Orders and Market History are very helpful for marketplay. Be sure to check them out.
The grabbing will come, with the decent explore rates ppl tend to batch explore & build in the very early set

Thanks Paradox.

Yes, i finally noticed the Market History (helps when not using Alliance database tools) and just placed my first market orders for tech and bushels. Not sure if it saved me money, but it sure was convenient.

Logged out 2nd. Really wish I wasn't an Indy. Oh well... always next set.
